Well you can't ridicule the scientists on this forum because most of them are gone and the rest have shut up. Of course no counter views can be posted on a religious forum thread closed or open. They will be deleted on the closed threads and there will be severe ridicule and name calling on the open ones and a strong risk of being banned. No such risk demurs to you or anyone else who wants to jump into any thread of a scientific nature and disrupt it.

Kevmo petitioned heavily at one time for closed and moderated science threads but it never went anywhere.

THAT is an issue you need to take up with JimRob. His site, you know?

***Actually, I consider the experiment to be a success. The religion mod allowed the opening of abiogenesis threads with the “scientism” tag, where scientism was acknowledged as a newly forming religion. The irony of the thing was that it was the scientism believers who had the most trouble with the concept. But basically, anyone who wants to open a science thread under a scientism tag under the religion moderator’s guidelines is free to do so, and the discussion is thereby more heavily moderated.
